  <section name="Release Announcement">
  <p>The Java Apache Mail Enterprise Server (a.k.a. Apache James) Project is happy to 
announce the release of version 2.1 of the Apache James server.</p>
  
  <p>James is a 100% pure Java Mail and News server designed to be a complete and 
portable enterprise mail engine solution.  James supports currently available IETF 
protocols, including SMTP and POP3 (NNTP and IMAP support are experimental in v2.1, 
and targeted for full functionality in v3).  James is able to store user and message 
data either in a file-system or a JDBC-compatible database, allowing fast, reliable, 
even real-time replicated storage.</p>
  
  <p>James provides a powerful, flexible mail application engine through support for 
the Apache Mailet API.  Due to the Mailet pipeline architecture, James is used not 
only to provide standard e-mail services, but also to provide custom e-mail 
applications.</p>
  
  <p>The James mail server is deployed in production environments and has proven 
itself to be a robust and high performance mail solution.  Tests indicate that version 
2.1 is able to maintain a constant mail throughput rate of thousands of 
messages/minute for continuous periods.</p>
  
  <p>The James Community is also happy to announce the beginning of the design phase 
for James version 3.0.  Features tentatively slated for that version include 
enhancements to nearly every area of functionality, including full IMAP support, 
improved mailing list capabilities, and the next revision of the Mailet API.  This is 
expected to be an exciting time in James development.  We are actively looking for 
eager, capable developers to contribute to James.  If you're interesting in 
contributing to the James project, please subscribe to the James developer mailing 
list.</p>
  
  <p>Information about James can be found at the <a
